Hello Everyone!
My first post was on Kat'y age poll the other day. I am following up wth photos of my 2002 SC.
By way of my car's history, she first showed up at Lexus of Palm Beach, FL on 10-22-01. Her production number 1s 401.
After spending the early years in the Miami area, she was put on a transport and followed her owner's job transfer diagonally across the country to Seattle. After a year or so she was put up for sale at which time I was the lucky one to acquire her and a beauty she is, barely a flaw with 41,400 miles and all the paperwork you could ask for. She did have a small dimple/ding just under the driver's door handle so I took her the local Lexus dealer who for $125. would fix it. When they were finished they said that it was 98-99% gone and because it wasn't 100% in their eyes there was no charge. I couldn't tell the difference. Maybe because I was already a customer they gave me a courtesy break. Regardless, I appreciated the gesture.
Anyway, she has found a good home and wil be pampered. Might have to get an electric blanket for her being up north now. Its been 16 months and all is well. I am looking forward to all the future postings on the forum especially now that this classic is out of production.

Except for the license plate & the wheels, those could be pix of my car.
So where you at in WA? I'm in Beaverton, OR.

Welcome, are you sure an electric blanket will be enough. I think you should get the garage heated and soon too. lol She looks like a fine lady. I'm sure she will treat you right in the years ahead.

Welcome JC
Congrats on owning one of the most timeless cars ever produced. I can never see enough of that Ecru interior with the blond wood trim. However I am a little partial !
Since the SC is out of production I am toying with the idea of a second one. A later year model. One for her. One for me. Seems only logical.......
Good Luck with her.

Decent looking car you got there.... Congrats JC. She looks immaculate. You will definitely enjoy ownership of her for many years to come.

Beautiful! Thinking about the SC430. A friend of mine's mom might be selling hers. Up until this possibility, I have not looked an SC. Now I am perusing through these threads.
